But then there was someone who confidently stepped up: Aria.
âIf you collect all the pieces of the fragments, Iâm confident we can solve this. If you use the power of the fragments in this place, you will be able to create a passage between the Divine Realm and Middle Earth.â
[Such nonsense!?]
âThatâs right! Then there wonât be a big problem with the operation. Iâll be right back.â
[Wait, ZeroâŠ]
Fayna, who simply couldnât believe how significant the fragment of merit was, tried to hold on to Evan in confusion. However, his figure had already disappeared from the spot.
âDid he get fasterâŠ? I canât tell.â
âIâm sure he had become stronger when he gained his armor. Thatâs not fair.â
Leo grumbled like a child next to Maybell, who tilted her head. Evan gave him a hard time.
âGrandpa, I told you to wait for a little more.â
âIt doesnât matter if I need to wait, but I wanted to use my unique armament against the Devil, but I donât think Iâll be able to do thatâŠget it?â
Leo felt something strange as he replied. Looking back, Evan was there. He already collected the four fragments and handed them to Aria.
âIâm a little late because I was getting the fragment from the north.â
ââŠâ
Had Evan finally started dealing with time? Leo agonized seriously, but Aria managed to accept it without making any comments.
âThen letâs bring the gods in right now. Fayna, please participate. I want the exact physical coordinates.â
[Oh, I see.]
The four fragments had then been merged into one to form a small bead. Aria held it in one hand, muttering in a small voice, âIâll use it well,â and smashed it right away.
âAria?â
âItâs okay. You shouldnât copy anyone whoâs not a priest.â
The energy of the beads breaking out was absorbed into Aria. She took it quickly, smiled, and began to chant in earnest.
âHurry up, Fayna. The door will open now.â
[There must be only monsters like that around ZeroâŠ]
Pieces were falling from the sky to the ground. A small hole had sprung up in the middle of it. As it grew bigger and began radiating light everywhere, Fayna casually put her hands together to pray.
[Itâs the energy of the gods. I canât believe the door to the Divine Realm is openâŠ!]
âHmm.â
It was then that Evan suddenly felt a surge of eerie energy from the north. He turned his head. That was where the gates of the Demon Realm and the gates of the Spirit Realm were mixed. There was a torrent of evil spirits around the Eternal Glacier. Evan felt two kinds of familiar vibes from it.
âIt looks like heâs coming.â
âHe?â
âThe Devil.â
There was silence for a long moment. Shortly after, everyone realized what Evan was talking about and made a loud noise.
âThe Devil!â
âThe Devil is trying to reach Middle Earth himself!â
âNo, all of a sudden?â
âNot all of a sudden.â
Of course, it was swift compared to the case in Yo-Ma Great War Zero, but Evanâs track record had been quite different from that of the Ancient Great Wizard as well. The growth rate of the allied forces was speedy, and they broke into the middle barrier and broke down the base forces. Crucially, in the process of driving a wedge between the Middle Earth and Spirit Realm dragons and exterminating them, the southern base of the Demon tribes was also smashed, so frankly, they provoked the Devil.
âNow that I hear it, Iâve done a lot of thingsâŠ!â
âItâs mainly Zeroâs work!â
âAnyway, he knows what weâre going to do now. Itâs about to be settled.â
âThe DevilâŠ!â
Evan felt his arm tremble a little. It was a good thing that he had his armor. No, of course, they were caught because he was making his armor. It was terrible to think of a collision with the Devil without his unique armament.
âDear Fayna, George and his party are in the dungeon now, right?â
[Yes. they wonât be able to come out until Iâm done.]
âThatâs good.â
Before the gods had been brought down, it was fortunate that they were ordered to keep them in the dungeon in advance, fearing that the gods on earth might try to plant faith in humanity (although no one else knew why George had to believe in the Mother Earth). Whether the Devil died or Middle Earth was destroyed, they wouldnât come out to the earth until either side broke.
âMasterâŠâ
Maybell took Evanâs hand, perhaps because she was nervous about the word âDevilâ. Mirole didnât want to lose and held his other hand.
âOpen the door to Necklace World.â
When Evan opened the gate to the Necklace World, the elite forces who were already ready for battle emerged from it. Humans, elves, and dwarves, all covered with flashing dragon bones and scaly weapons, marched out. In the meantime, all of the dwarves had given up training and made it all night long, so they succeeded in arming themselves with dragon weapons!
âI think we can beat an enemy thatâs more than 50 levels apart. As expected, Dwarves make the best weapon!
âIt was worth destroying a race, Master!â
[Either be nervous or just relax!]
âIâm doing this to relax.â
Maybell rebuked Fayna for not being able to stand without interrupting Evan and Maybellâs conversation. Then some others beat her to Evan.
âGod!â
âWeâre ready, too.â
ââŠIâm done with my resolution.â
It was the trio of witches who grew a few days ago and showed off their hard-working beauty. They also held robes made of dragon skin, hats and gloves, and staffs made of dragon bones and dragon eyes. Evan was just admiring the brilliant artwork that was never seen before in the original Yo-Ma Great War series.
âWow, itâs so pretty.â
âYes, I canât believe itâs prettyâŠyikes, itâs finally time to sacrifice myself to god!â
Of course, Sharay, who took it as âyouâre beautiful,â stamped her feet with joy and moved on.
âThe magic has already been set up. From now on, our battle magic is only effective on the Devil until the very moment he dies.â
âIâve set a lot of other restrictions, but Iâll be fine if Iâm around god Oppa.â
Sharay and Arpa were ready to fight the Devil. On the other hand, Naz decided to give up her ability to raise her hand with constraints and instead focused on blocking the Devil with their Allies.
âI want to see the gods closer.â
âYes, thatâs a good idea.â
[The passage is openingâŠ!]
At that moment, the Allies crawling out of the Necklace World began to form. The gate in the middle of the waterfall greatly expanded and shone brilliantly. As if to match it, a terrible spell erupted in the northern land beyond, creating a massive column of magic.
âThe DevilâŠâ
Mirole murmured blankly. Evan smiled lightly and reassured her.
âIâve done everything I can. But if it doesnât work, weâll die together, anyway.â
âAt least Iâll die with Zero. Thatâs not too bad.â
Only then did Mirole smile and grasp Evanâs hand tightly. Naturally, Maybell, on the other side, also put a lot of strength in her grip.
âYou canât die in a place like this, so give up on that thought. Iâll be following you around the rest of your life.â
âThat sounds like harassment.â
At that moment. From the brilliant light emitted by the gate, divine beings emerged.
[Finally on the groundâŠhuh?]
[Whatâs that swirling energy in the north? The Devil?]
[Fayna, the Apostle of the Great Mother Earth! Explain. Things on the ground seem to be running a bit more urgent than we thoughtâŠ]
âAll right, weâve got the gods, so letâs start the second transmission!â
âHuh? Aria, what do you mean by the second transmission?â
âSurprise!â
Aria cheered and stamped the ground with a staff. Around the land, a vast, colossal magic circle appeared, surrounding all of her companions, including the Allies.
[Wait⊠human priest who brought us down, that energyâŠwow! Argh!?]
One of the gods seemed to have said something, but Evan didnât hear it. They were already on the Eternal Glacier. What filled their eyes was the land of white snowâŠa legion of Demons and monsters filled the space.
[Itâs a human!]
[Di-divine power?]
[Huuuuuuuuuuuuh! A god? How come there are gods!]
Evan thought Aria was confident. It was when the big match, in which the Divine world, the Demon Realm, the Spirit Realm, and Middle Earth clashed, and was forced to form by the magic of the fragments!
* * *
[Devillllllll!]
The First Demon cried out. His whole body was soaked in blood, but his armament blood shadow was weak despite this being his ideal environment.
[I canât believe you canât answer me when you need me!]
âWhat do you mean he needs you? No, you donât have to answer. Weâll be done soon, anyway.â
[What the hell. How comeâŠ!]
Thorns wrapped around the crying First Demon. It was a technique that required a great price to permanently consume the energy of the Demons on the ground, but Rose, who knew that the Demons would never spread their wings again on this land anyway used her energy generously.
âLetâs wrap this up, baby!â
âYes! Hey!â
If it was a fixed target, thereâs nothing to fear from anyone. Eir imbued all the magic in her dual pistols, shooting at the enemy. The finishing was, of course, Elizabethâs part.
âThe enemy that stands between my brother and me, die!â
At the moment of the clash, the withdrawal of the two Morningstars in Elizabethâs hands glistened with a mysterious light. The First Demon, who had no energy left, saw it and cried out as he felt death.
[I must keep the promises with the Devil! Naiveeeeee!]
Boom.
And that was it. The moment after Elizabeth broke the First Demonâs throat and landed on the ground, the black energy flowing from First Demonâs bodyâs debris crept up and was absorbed by her two Morningstars. Surisazâs rune and the black energy mixed, creating a strange glowing pattern.
The Morningstar, which had grown by absorbing magic from the moment it entered the Demon Realm, had finally been completed. Elizabeth didnât know, but it was pretty similar to the process of the birth of demon armament, and it had the same meaning as the unique armor, but it didnât quite reach the realm of the soul.
A weapon that condensed matter and magic to the limit. It was the moment of the birth of a rare wonder that had never existed before and would never exist again.
âWow, now I think I can do that!â
âItâs not the time, kid. I think things are going fast.â
Rose raised the thorn stalk, vigilant despite the First Demonâs death, pointing in one direction. There stood the man of the robe that Elizabeth blew away earlier. A spark popped out of Elizabethâs eyes as she looked at the necklace in the manâs hand.
âYou! That! My Oppa!â
Elizabethâs anger broke through the threshold in an instant. Not only did he just imitate Oppa, but now he stole his necklace! Even Elizabeth couldnât know that the necklace was not Miraseulâs necklace, but a necklace that was newly made based on that necklace. Anyway, it was clear that it was Evanâs necklace.
âI canât forgive youâŠ!â
ââŠâ
The man was also muttering something out of reach of them. Elizabeth used the power she had just absorbed from the First Demon to create a vast, heavy shadow Morningstar behind her, swinging at the man. Before it hit him directly, a gate formed in the air engulfed him. At that moment, Eir, an Elf with good ears, clearly heard the manâs lips fluttering and saying something.
âHe said it was real! Whatâs real?â
âWe have to go after him and kill him.â
Elizabeth swung her Morningstar again in the air. The gate, which had devoured the man and was being destroyed and was forcibly torn apart, expanding.
âYou have to go kill him!â
âIâm scared, UnnieâŠ!â
âAh, these damn things are soâŠ!â
Elizabeth then grabbed Eirâs hand and jumped into the gate. Rose had no choice but to chase after them even though she was in tears. Shortly after the three disappeared into the gate, it was completely torn and disappeared. All that was left of it was red land and blood-colored Dark Magic that filled the atmosphere.
Soon that began to fade away, too, because the owner of the world was gone.
